Sirach 40:25-27

Common English Bible

²⁵ Gold and silver make one stand firm,
    but more highly esteemed than both
    is good advice.
²⁶ Money and strength will lift up
one’s heart,
    but fearing the Lord is better than both.
If you fear the Lord,
you’ll lack nothing;
    if you have it,
    there’s no reason to look for help.
²⁷ Fear of the Lord
is like an orchard of blessing,
    and it covers a person
    more fully than any glory.
